CPW Pre-Order showing DISPATCHED!

flipshot said:
I ordered minutes after pre-orders went on sale and mines still processing. :(

They better not screw it up.

I ordered mine online on sat night but there was an issue as my credit card was suspended due to the 1p CPW must have used to check the card so i had to speak to my card issuer to say it was genuine & then i spoke to CPW on sunday & they placed a new order on the phone, i think that helped my order actually. The same guy phoned me back yesterday to say he was putting it thro for dispatch but my pac code was holding it up, so i told him i would deal with it later but just to send it thru.
So far im really impressed with CPW's helpfulness..specially Harvey, a very nice, helpful guy!

Any, getting to my point, my order probably would be the same except for the hiccup & having to reorder!! A human voice seemed to process my order in a more efficient way.
 
I pre ordered in one of the Swansea stores last Friday - they didnt know much at all then.

Getting impatient, Ive just called them to check whats happening tomorrow and they said its all go.

1) they have my phone there now - but cannot give it to me until tomorrow
2) they will trade in my 3g and give me £180 odd for it :)
3) they open at 10am - so I'll see them then!

Happy days, 3g contract downgraded to £35 a month, 6 months remaining on contract so £180 will go towards paying that off !!:):)

I had that same issue, and rung them and they said it had gone through and my phone would be with me 19th June but since then I have heard nothing.

I want to ring them but my landline has gone down and I'm not paying the stupid price it will be to ring them from my mobile. Managed to get Virgin Media to come look at the phone line this afternoon so hopefully they can fix and I'll be able to ring CPW if it hasn't been dispatched.

£180 trade in? that's all well and good for a quick transaction but you could get up to £100 more on ebay.

i put mine on yesterday and having a quick look at the other 3g's they all seem to be going for between £250 and £300. that's used and locked to o2.

I know what you mean about Ebay, but I just think there are soooo many scammers on ebay phones I dont want to get bitten (again)...paypal aint as safe as it used to be with payment reversions, the usual my aunite in tim buck two sob stories, and then the ebay fees etc.

Im giving CPW the phone only (thats all they want) and thats the end of it, I will sell my 3g box, headphones and bits on ebay keep my charger cable though as every penny helps :D
 
Woohoo! Mine now says dispatched but on the carphone warehouse site it says it wont deliver until Sat. I am desperately waiting for the city link website to process my order so I can find out if I should take a day off work tomorrow!

Hurry up iPhone!!! I want you now lol

Im such an idiot is says Sat June 13th!!! So maybe it will arrive tomorrow!
 
Hi everyone,

Just checked here to find info on CPW deliveries of 3GS and then went and checked my delivery status, and it says it should arrive today, Thurs 18th June!

I'm so surprised, and somewhat doubting that it will, but it's looking good for delivery tomorrow given it states it should arrive today.

I only pre-order mine yesterday (Wednesday 17th) online, and so wasn't really expecting mine to arrive on the launch date let alone the possibility that will might arrive today.

I guess if it is in transit today, apple might hold it up until tomorrow anyway given what others have reported in the US

I will keep you posted!

I'm pretty excited about this ( is that sad... a little :p ) I have a 2g iphone at the moment and held out when the 3g came out as I had a feeling it wouldn't be long until they made further improvements and my patience has paid off... can't wait, finally I'll have a 3g iphone... and with a little extra!

Cheers,

Tom
 
Is anyone having luck with the city-link job numbers? Mine is not being recognised but I only got it an hour and a half ago so I wasnt sure if people who received them earlier than me were having any luck. I dont want to have to go to my moms house tonight (had to take it out in her name because they had issues with my bank - barclays randomly changed my postcode) and take a day off work if it then doesnt arrive.
 
If Citylink is going to deliver it tomorrow then they will probably only collect from CPW this afternoon and scan it in this evening. The tracking number will only appear on their systems after that.

My status still says processing . . .
 
spoke to CPW earlier for tracking number and was told that the Citylink number will not be valid yet as they can't delivery till tomorrow. I am glad I pre-ordered as the CPW site now has the black 16GB as coming soon, and the rest as order now

Poor sods at CPW ears must be red hot with all our calls today
:)

I just called and apparently the tracking number I can see on their tracking is a holding number and won't go live until they route out tomorrow (mine has 'TBA' at the front which I thought was suspicious).

However the bloke was able to confirm that my order is closed down so I will be getting it tomorrow - which is good as my new O2 account already has a bill from tomorrow scheduled.

So I'm a happy bunny as I only pre-ordered on Monday!

:apple:

I posted this earlier, but I'll post it again, as people seem to be missing it:

Deliv date on order tracking page=next day (which is standard for CPW orders). You ordered yours yesterday so your delivery date should have been today. However, the phone is not out so you'll get it tomorrow or later maybe.
 
mobiles.co.uk just sent me an email saying its been despatched, and will be delivered tomorrow!!! Also just got my O2 login details.
 
Mine still says processing. I spoke to a guy at cpw last night who assured me it'd be with me tomorrow, not holding out much hope :(
 
Just a couple of points...

City link ref should be something like TBA12345 (3 letters, 5 numbers)

My order number still says "processing" However, after I rang CPW and they gave me my tracking number. I then tracked it, and my order number was different, so I rang City Link, who confirmed that this was my parcel, and will be with me tomorrow.

So....even if your order number says "processing" I don't think this means much.

Ooooo, good news! Wonder if i should give cpw a call!
 
I just got the 'your order has been dispatched' email from CPW. It doesn't sate a delivery date and the tracking number isn't on the system yet.

Good grief, does it not make you wonder how CPW keep a track of anything?! I've had no emails from them at all apart from the "it's out of stock pre-order" one and an initial confirmation. Yet, City Link now have data from my tracking number. So why no despatch note from CPW?
